UV 2 Click is a mikroBUS™ add-on board with a VEML6075 UVA and UVB light sensor. VEML6075 is a CMOS chip that incorporates a photodiode, amplifiers, and analogue/digital circuits. With UV 2 Click, Solar ultraviolet light intensity is converted to 16-bit digital values.


Description

UV 2 Click is a mikroBUS™ add-on board with a VEML6075 UVA and UVB light sensor. VEML6075 is a CMOS chip that incorporates a photodiode, amplifiers, and analogue/digital circuits.

With UV 2 Click, Solar ultraviolet light intensity is converted to 16-bit digital values. UVA and UVB are in separate channels. To keep a stable output in changing temperature conditions, the chip has temperature compensation capabilities. This ensures reliable performance under long term UV exposure.

The sensor has a specified UVA sensitivity of 365 nm and UVB sensitivity of 315 nm

The board communicates with the target MCU through the mikroBUS™ I2C interface. Designed to use a 3.3 power supply only.


Specifications

  • Interface: I2C
  • Compatibility: mikroBUS™
  • Dimensions: 28.6 x 25.4mm
  • Input Voltage: 3.3V
